Manfred ?

I need you to do me the kindness of leaving.

What are you saying ?

Livia, wait ! You are ridiculing me.

You are doing it alone. It would be more dignified if you just left.

- You didn't even tell me why. - Do I have to ?

Shall I tell you that this evening you've come to bore me ?

Am I boring you or getting in your way because you have to move on to someone else ?

You have to keep seducing men Because that's the only thing you know how to do.

- Coffee. - Morning.

Good morning.

Thank you. Actually, I should be the one bringing you coffee in bed.

- No, Nelide says it hurts me. - You could have stayed in bed longer.

- It's also Sunday. - What's that got to do with it ?

You are on duty and I want to bring you coffee all the time.

- I am always afraid that he will make up his mind While I am far away. - You will have time.

They will come and call you, it doesn't happen from one minute to the next.

Eh...

He said goodbye.

Small ? Bye. See you soon.

Hello.

Commissioner, we need to go right away to Mrs. Livia's house.

-You know Miss Clara ? -Yes. Clara, what happened to Livia ?

We have to hurry, I couldn't wake her up

But if he wakes up and sees what I I saw... - Now you tell me. Let's go.

-Clara, what are you doing here ? Didn't you gone to the village? -Yes, I came back.

Gennaro, the gentlemen must go up with me.

Where are you ?

Where are you ?

He is sound asleep. You need to clarify a few things for me, Clara.

The fellow villager who called yesterday

To tell you about your mother's illness did you know him ?

In the village we all know each other, but I haven't seen him.

He left saying to Gennaro. I got scared for my mother.

- I asked for permission and left. - What time was it ?

Around eight o'clock and it took me more than three hours to get to the village.

I am from Cardito and when my mother saw me at night

Was almost feeling sick. - Did you guys leave again right away ? - Yes.

- When you left, was the major staying here ? - No.

But they were supposed to go out together, and when I saw them in bed this morning

I almost didn't notice anything.

- This is not the first time the major has slept here. - Oh, Bruno.

- Is this about Livia ? - No, don't worry, let's hurry though.

- What are you looking for, commissa'? - Nothing, Raffae'. It's just that...

- I feel that there is something strange. - Very strange, something is missing.

- Blood. - With a hole in the head Here it should be full of blood.

- Instead I see only wine. - Livia, wake up.

- Livia... - Then... missing the bullet exit hole.

So it's a small caliber bullet caliber and it stayed in.

Livia... Livia ?

You cannot enter. Please !

> Please. - What's going on ?

- You can't ! - What's going on? - You can't come in. - It's okay.

We are a special unit of law enforcement.

- We take care of everything. You can go. - You leave !

-I am Commissioner Ricciardi of the Royal Police Headquarters. -How dare you?

- Oh... Stop! - Calm down! Calm down!

We got off on on the wrong foot.

So.

Commissioner.

I am Captain Rossi and I am part of a special facility

Ministry employee in Rome and this is not a common crime

But an issue that has to do with the security of the country.

Here.

Is the mandate that authorizes us to take charge of the situation.

How did you know that here was a situation to be taken care of ?

- We were warned by the doorman of the building. > Livia ?

- Can you hear me, Livia? Can you hear me ? - Mrs. Lucani Livia

widow Vezzi, was found drunk and with a revolver in her hand

Next to the body of the lover, a sign of crime of passion.

- I don't think the lady... - No, no... Bruno.

The gentlemen have the papers in order, they will take care of it.

Take away a curiosity. How does this crime of passion

as you have stated, to be a matter of national security ?

Because ... the aforementioned lover

Major Manfred von Brauchitsch, was a German spy

on behalf of a subversive group hostile to Chancellor Hitler

our ally, is that clear ?

- Good work, captain. - To you.

Bruno, Raffae', let's go. Cesarano, come.

All away. Camarda ? Away.

- Does it seem normal to you For us to leave... - Not here !

Let's talk to me.

Bruno, tell us if you understood Why Livia was not waking up.

How did you leave the field to those clowns ?

That was all we could do. They were sent from Rome, the fact is big.

They say there is more order. Of course, Take away the freedom and there remains order.

Livia, Bruno.

Then, Livia had pinpoint pupils.

They gave her barbiturates, then they did the staging.

-The corpse was put there. -Didn't Mrs. Livia kill him ?

Meanwhile, the major was not killed there.

- That's right. - The maid was sent away

To organize the play. -You have left the field open. -Enough !

Do you understand that we have an opportunity ?

We were not supposed to be there. The scene of the crime was so sloppy

because they had to come compliant policemen, not us.

They did not expect that Clara would return soon and look for us.

- In my opinion, we anticipated them by a little bit. - Now what ? What do we do ?

The only thing we can do, we investigate under the radar.

It means using unofficial resources

and be careful not to get caught. - I'm in

But I have nothing to lose. I worry you who have families.

We will be careful. Are you up to it ?

Commissa', undercover investigations are my specialty.

So, first we need to have information

On Manfred's necrological examination. Take care of it, Bruno.

They have to do the autopsy, it's part of the set-up.

- Clear. - You, Raphael, try to to find out what happened to Livia.

Whether he is in prison or...

I will.... targeted questions.

The most important thing is that we don't have to do anything for today.

-Nothing ? -They must be watching us, studying our reactions.

We have to show that we we are not interested in investigating.

Is it okay ?

It was said that no one would enter anyone before us.

It's just... the cook was supposed to find the bodies at noon

And we would intervene. We had no idea that the maid ...

Since you have no imagination, from now on think of prevention.

If anything else goes wrong, you don't see me again.

In fact, we will never have seen each other.

Tell me why there wasn't a stationary car under the gate.

-You would have seen the maid come back. -We didn't want to be conspicuous.

With the deserted road. We waited for a busier time.

-So eventful that the the police. -But it all came back.

- That commissioner transposed the order. - I don't trust him !

It needs to be watched and this time I recommend no mistakes.

I will take this into account When I command the structure.

- Good morning. - Good morning.

- Good morning, honey. - Good morning. - Good morning, Nelide. - Good morning.

- There is no need for you to have to eat. - Nelide is pleased.

Is that true ? Then the cuisine of the Cilento region has certain delicacies

That you have to taste. - We are happy.

- Mbrugliateddi. - Ah, mbrugliateddi.

- How are you feeling? - Great, Dad.

- You ? - I am not pregnant. - I am not sick.

I prepared the delivery room, as is the tradition.

A beautiful baby boy is about to be born, the future baron of Malomonte.

Female, baroness.

What do you say ? I had three children, one boy and two girls.

I recognize the male belly. Then I don't say that, but the numbers do.

Father's name is 21 letters, mother's is 12.

Then I did a calculation with the dates of birth, so it comes to 3882.

Three plus eight plus eight plus two, makes 21. Odd, male.

(in Neapolitan) Three "R "s the name of the father. One "R" the mother's name.

- Three and one, four. Even, female. - What did he say? - Mbrugliateddi.

They are two people with the highest priority level, Falco.

One is dead, the other is missing. The their control was entrusted to you !

How is it possible that two comrades Romans came here

Have arranged this and you didn't notice. -We are few in number.

Small surveillance holes like the one in front of the building yesterday

in which the reception was held are unavoidable.

I couldn't imagine that the two would quarrel

Leaving the party early. This was an unplanned event.

Ah... What bad luck, eh ? Or rather, how lucky for the Roman comrades

who organized this and intervened at that time.

Then-how they moved to Naples, as if they had lived here forever.

- Maybe someone helped them from here. - Do you think so, Pedicino ?

- Any of us, you mean ? - I hope not

Because such a traitor deserves death.

Of course.

You better understand what has happened, Falco, and whose fault it is.

That's him. He helped the Roman comrades

And in return he will have asked for what he always wanted, my place.

- I will kill him with my own hands. - No, Pedicino.

Falco is tied to Rome and it could end badly for us.

We need to find out more about him and about this operation.

We know what little there is in the Commissioner Ricciardi's report.

- Was he the one who intervened at the place ? - Yes, but he was deputized.

He will not follow the investigation. We won't be able to learn more from him.

This is not necessarily the case.

Ricciardi...

- I was hoping to find you. - Doctor, what brings you here on a Sunday evening ?

Don't you imagine ? How do you think I could wait until tomorrow

After what happened. - The inspection of the Lucani house.

- From whom did you hear ? - I was informed of your intervention.

They asked you to check That I stay in my place.

Ricciardi, it is natural that it should be handled by the political police

the death of a German citizen on Allied soil. - I agree.

In fact, I ended the relationship

and passed the case to the appropriate authority.

Then again. honestly, doctor

I wouldn't have even known how to behave...

With poor Livia given the friendship that bound me to her.

I feel sorry for poor Livia

But it was no longer her. Everyone knew about her breakdown.

You would have known it too If you had continued to associate with her.

So he did what he did. Only a person out of his mind

allegedly handled an argument this way that occurred during a reception.

- Of course, undoubtedly. - I have always distrusted that woman.

- You guys know that. - It's true.

Ricciardi...

We do not know anything about this matter.

Understood ?

In fact, the ministry says that nothing happened.

Then nothing happened And what didn't happen...

did not happen. National security.

An order is an order, Ricciardi And he who does not obey...

Enrica ?

- There you are! - Love.

I have to tell you something.

- Me too. - What happened ?

Come.

I know I am about to give you pain

But there is one thing I can't not tell you. Sit down.

Today I had to go to Livia Lucani's house

Because ... there was a murder.

Manfred is dead, Enrica.

- Manfred was killed ? How ? - Yes.

- Killed ? - Yes.

They want to blame Livia, but it didn't happen that way.

It's political murder, in fact they don't want me to investigate it. They suck !

It's all so unfair, But I don't know what to do.

For the first time in my life I thought I would do better

To not try to understand how it went Because -- because I know them.

I know what they are capable of, and for the first time in my life I am afraid

Not so much for me, but ... I was afraid for you.

What did Manfred say ?

- That he thought before he died. - That's the thing, he wasn't there.

0Manfred's soul was not there.

It didn't go the way they said because ... if there was no

They killed him somewhere else And then they took him there.

I have never been able to talk about this with anyone.

You don't know how important it is to me.

You are the most important thing I have

And I can't ask you to give up this investigation, it would not be you

And I love you and no one else, However, I ask you to be careful.

Please don't forget about us.

- Nelide... I'll give you a hand. - No, don't worry. Have a seat.

Look, apart from the "R" thing.

How can you be sure that it will be a girl ? - Aunt Rosa said.

- I dream about it from time to time. - I also I would like to dream of her from time to time.

- Did you tell the baron that is female ? - No, this is not the time.

- Nelide, we have to help him. - We help him enough.

- What more do we need to do ? - I don't know.

- In the meantime we stay close to him And then we'll find out. - Whatever.

As you say, eh ?

Be forewarned, though. When the creature, I must take care of her.

Aunt Rosa said so, especially if it is born on a waning moon.

- Why ? What does it mean ? - I don't know, but if Aunt Rosa says so, I obey.

- Good morning. - Don't worry, no one followed me

However, since I think you don't want to be seen with me, let's seclude ourselves.

He came around 7 p.m.

He parked the cart of fruit and said.

who was a countryman of Clara's

and had to warn her that her mother was not was well. - How was she ? - How was she...

He was young, about 20 years old, black hair, in short, normal.

- Normal. Then ? - I went to Clara and told her the thing.

She became very agitated.

She said she was going out right away And shortly thereafter she went out.

- Have you seen Mrs. Lucani? - No.

I had already closed the guardhouse.

I what I saw Was the day after

When you came together with Clara.

When you ran to warn the men of the militia.

Raise a curiosity, how did you warn them ?

- They were very fast. - I watched them go by and ...

Genna', I know and you know. Those gentlemen came alone.

Don't worry, I will not tell anyone anything.

I am interested in knowing the truth about what happened.

So let's start again, or else I won't move from here.

Commissa', those people. It's better to do as they say

Otherwise, you run the risk of coming to a a bad end.

Livia is also in danger of coming to a a bad end.

They came suddenly and came in without asking me anything.

-Did you know them, had you ever seen them? -No, I had never seen them.

I didn't ask for his personal details. Now let me go back to the lobby.

- One last thing. Tell me about when they came out. - One.

Only one came out.

He told me what I had to say And to close the guardhouse.

I did so. I closed the guardhouse.

And I went to the Municipal Villa.

Whatever, thank you anyway. For good behavior.

- Hello, Easter. - Hello, Raffae'.

- You don't have any information either. - Unfortunately, I have news.

Ms. Lucani is not in jail.

- Are you sure ? - Don't be offended. For information about the inmates

me and my men nothing escapes

not even if they are in a prison far away. - So I turn to you.

I thank you. Of this matter there is no trace in any prison

near or far. Raffae', not even under a false name.

How is it possible ? It's gone.

- I did not find one piece of information. - Let me introduce you to a person

that turns the city inside out like a sock. - Now you offend me.

What do you think I have done so far ?

- But I find it at the cost of making myself make myself look like a fool. - Whatever, go.

I'm leaving, I don't want to pass as a fool with you.

Arthur, I have little time And I don't go around it.

Where did you accompany Livia on Saturday evening ? It was you on duty.

- Yes, at the reception of Duchess Previti. - Was she alone or accompanied ?

We went to get the major.

- What time did you arrive ? - About nine o'clock. Then I was notified

I could go. The lady would return by other means.

Who warned you? Livia, the major, who?

Arthur, you would not have left her there If she had not ordered it.

Commissa...

I had to leave, it was an order that could not be discussed

However, I thought it was safe. - What made you think that ?

Because ... the gentleman who ordered me to do it ordered it was from the political police.

- I saw him often with her, he was not he was in no danger. - What is his name ?

This gentleman what is his name ?

Arthur...

If the danger is not there, what are you afraid of ?

I am afraid for me. He recommended To mind my own business.

He told me to wait two days.

If the lady did not show up show up, it meant that she had left.

I can tell you two things for sure.

Livia is in grave danger And about that man you were wrong

Because she is in danger because of her.

Commissa...

Hawk.

The man's name is Falco.

- Sister, good morning. - Good morning.

- Can you tell me where I can find Professor Anselmi ? - Who ?

Anselmi, for the meeting of medical examiners in Naples.

I come from the Hospital of the Incurables.

- I was handed a communication. - Amendola !

Here we are. Thank you, sister, I'll I'll take care of it. This way, come.

How are you, Amendola? Come.

Come. Please, Amendola, have a seat.

Understood, Professor Anselmi is not here.

- He did not come. - I scampered here like a fool.

For once we agree ... that you're dumb. Have a seat, have a seat.

What do you want, Modo? Why did you call me?

I want to know about the dead man yesterday, the German with the bullet in his head.

- What are you saying? You are crazy. I didn't see any dead people. - I have.

I knew you would answer like this Because you are a chickenshit.

You were the first to sign up to that ridiculous party of theirs

And suing colleagues to grab your job.

This story again ?

- I did you a favor. Here at the Pilgrims you are better off than I am. - Yes.

I say this to remind you

That I know a lot about you since my college days

including the prepaid visits to wanted persons, remember ?

I don't know which dead person you are talking about.

They must have taken it to someone else. Why did you come to me ?

Because you are consenting, everybody knows it

And because your hospital was the closest closest. - The nearest is yours.

Is mine closer ? How do you know ?

Do you see that you are dumb, Amendola ?

Now you don't want to report me, huh ?

- Mhm ? - Come on, test me or tell me

What you found on the German and you had to write in the report.

Shall I have two coffees brought ?

- Good morning. - Good morning.

(in Neapolitan) Give me broccoli, artichokes, peppers

zucchini and oranges. The baroness likes the juice. - May I say ?

I preferred it when you bought every day. Now come, order

Then I don't see you for a week. - The creature is about to be born.

- Be quick, I don't want to be absent for too long. - Broccoli? - Yes.

What about us ? Gentlemen...

I wait, you know, however... you have given me hope.

Sarraci', "those who live on hope badly lunch and worse dinner."

- I understand, all right. - Then we'll talk about it, come on.

After the creature is born, mhm ?

- Are you sure that you weren't followed ? - No.

For the investigation, I did not move.

Then even if they had seen me, there would be nothing strange

Because I eat the puff pastry and you pay, as always. -Commissioner.

-Doctor. -Have a seat. Bruno is going to tell us what he found out and how.

Whatever, on the how we gloss over Because it is a crime.

-Sorry and tell. -So ... the victim had in his head.

a bullet compatible with Livia's gun

two broken teeth, a bruise under the eye

and marks on his wrists and ankles. -He was bound, beaten and killed.

That's right. Who expected so much acumen in this brigadier's bod.

Of all this you will find nothing in my colleague's report.

- There only the bullet will be talked about, not even the sand. - Sand ?

On the major's clothes there was a coarse sand, like crushed stone

with mineral particles luminescent, a peculiar thing.

- With that it is traced back to the site of the murder. - That's right.

I tracked down Ms. Lucani.

- The brigadier's bodice I've got myself. - Eh. - Where is it ?

Leonardo Bianchi, the psychiatric hospital.

I came up with this idea And I set out to find it.

A cousin of my wife's works there. She says they admitted a woman

That matches the description. - Have you heard how he is doing ?

She is in solitary confinement and is sedated.

This cousin said she might forget to give her the medicine

And we can take the opportunity to talk with her. - Do they let you in ?

-She is a trusted person. -When, Raffae'? -When we want.

- Lunchtime is the best. - Tomorrow. - Riccia', you ?

We talked. What did you find out ?

The Roman militia group coordinated with a man from here.

One that Livia knows and has always decried as dangerous.

Are you finished ? Is that enough ? Is that all ?

- Has married life dulled investigative skills ? - Witty.

Let me put the pieces together. About the sand.

Your colleague will have preserved it as an exhibit.

- Would you be willing to give you a sample ? - I exclude that

However, I might be able to get some

only. is another offense.

Now it's okay that I do things illegal and it just happens to be me.

It's for a just cause otherwise I wouldn't be here to cover for you.

- Do you remember what that Modo told you ? - Yes.

Hurry up, go. Come on, hurry up.

- Brigadier, cast an eye. - Don't worry, I'll take care of it.

- Pasta and potatoes. - It's crazy. - Bianca. - Luigi.

- What a surprise ! - What happiness to see you

However, I am even happier to to have spent some time with your wife.

- Bianca spoils me, she brought me pastries as well. - That's the least

To enjoy your company.

You don't know how many boring teas I've had to sit through in my life.

Speaking of worldliness, forgive the crassness, but...

- Can I ask you a favor ? - Sure.

- Do you know Duchess Previti ? - Yes.

- I would need to talk to you. - For an investigation ?

I can tell you.

This is not a real investigation Because an investigation cannot be.

I can't show up at her house, I should see her informally.

- He promised that he will be careful. - Well, if -- I have your permission.

I will call you tonight and invite you for coffee tomorrow morning at my place.

- Perfect. - It's gone. - Thank you.

- Pastry? - Yes, I join you.

This is the wallet.

The watch.

This is the sand. Here, take it.

Tie.

- Bravo. - Thank you.

- Why, brigadie ? - Ssh.

You always deserve two "pacchere", regardless. Go ahead.

Go and put this thing down. Quick, get moving. He also complains.

With the duchess knowing Bianca you should find out something, no ?

Yes.

Why are you concerned ?

If one day it was my turn ? Livia Stands there, locked in an asylum.

Like my mother.

Insanity is so close and we don't realize it.

I don't believe in this thing Of insanity as you understand it.

- You know ? I think it will be a girl. - What makes you think so ?

- Nelide's superstitions ? - No, not really.

I can't explain it, I can feel it.

[MUSIC FROM RADIO]

- As long as he has dark eyes like you. - Why do you always say that ?

Your eyes are so beautiful, green.

Because these green eyes that you find beautiful are actually...

The sign of my mother's legacy.

The sign that I had ... something different.

Enri', if our daughter Will have green eyes like mine....

I will not be able to pretend I don't understand what it means.

We don't have to pretend we don't understand.

Dark, green...

He will be happy.

Then I thought another thing.

If it really is going to be a girl...

I would like to name her Marta, after your mother.

- Hi, Luci'. - Hi.

- What? I had you warned that I'd be late. - Huh?

No, no, that's not why.

- For what ? - There is a couple interested in meeting Benedetta.

Ah...

I thought ... that after all this time they had forgotten.

Whatever, that's a good thing, right ? He will have a family.

- They are coming here tomorrow morning. - No.

Benedetta goes to school, I have to do something in the office.. Not tomorrow.

What happens if he misses a day of school ? This is an important thing.

I want to meet them, maybe they decide to take it.

Why, don't you ?

Yes.

Eh.

What are you still doing here ? Go! They're not taking her away this morning anyway.

- Go ! - No, wait. First go to the police station to warn

I'm going in the afternoon. I have a family matter to resolve.

- Then you have to do something for me, for an investigation. - What's 'this news ?

- John has to go to school. Don't you have underlings ? - Sure.

however, no one needs to know about this investigation, so either I do it

Or a person I trust does it, then if he misses a day of school

that's okay, isn't it ?

This is sand.

[BELL]. Here it is, right on time.

Curious. A baron marrying a schoolteacher

When he could have had you, 'this pretty little thing.

He must have been discouraged by your ambiguous relationship with Marangolo.

No, Maria Giulia, you are off the mark. Luigi Alfredo loves another woman.

Love ! What nonsense.

- Give to me. - Welcome. - Thank you.

Meet the duchess Maria Giulia Previti of San Vito.

- You are Malomonte, then. - That's right. Enchanted, duchess.

I prefer call myself Ricciardi.

- I never exhibit the title to avoid... - What nonsense.

One is called what one is called.

It is not a merit to be born in a family

But it is a guilt to be ashamed of it. - My function as a commissioner...

- Your function is not independent your title. - You are right.

- A person of experience Like you... - Experienced !

- You mean old. - No, absolutely.

I was not alluding to age, but to the experience of those like you

knows how the world works.

I need to understand a few things

happened at the reception Saturday night.

I know that Mrs. Lucani has been your guest

And had an argument with his companion.

- Everybody knows that. - In fact. it is a highly confidential matter.

Do you see ?

We are not interested in Livia. We are interested in the major.

We fear that he is using it for an espionage operation.

Tell about the fight, Mary Julia.

- Tell me, Ascanius. - I have a message for Mrs. Lucani.

- Thank you. - With permission.

Manfred ?

[INAUDIBLE VOICE]

- He went away furious. - Did he leave the Lucani there ?

Yes, Livia also left after a while... by herself.

- After a while how much ? - By midnight certainly.

You could not have been more precise. One last thing.

Is it possible to know from the butler Who delivered the note to him ?

I marvel at you, Malomonte.

Do you think that I didn't ask him ?

- Aren't we going back in, Falco ? - No missteps while he remains alone.

It's a matter of days now anyway, maybe a matter of hours.

As our informants tell us.

Hitler will soon prevail over his internal opponents

And when he has absolute power... - You will spread the news

Of the major's death. - That's right, Hitler will be grateful.

Then we will return from Rome to arrest the widow Vezzi.

If the predictions about Hitler do not come true ?

- We will have missed an opportunity and we will leave it as it is. - What about Livia ?

The, uh, Mrs. Vezzi ?

She will stay in the place best suited for her Where they can cure her insanity.

You did a very good job with her, Hawk. Don't screw it up.

Things will go as planned And you will get your reward.

- Doctor, I bring urgent news. - Pedicine, tell me.

- Colleagues from the team in Rome have left again. - How do we know ?

We saw them leaving the city And they also left the houses

But Mrs. Lucani was not with them. - Mhm.

It means they are quiet because Falco keeps everything under control.

We can't even figure out where they have hidden the Lucani.

- More bad news ? - That policeman, Ricciardi...

- Mhm. - He is investigating, you were right.

At first he was fooling us. He moves well for a policeman.

Today he went to Countess Bianca of Roccaspina like other times.

-Shall we get to the point? -There was also Duchess Previti there.

that of the reception

So we understood that Ricciardi is secretly investigating.

- Do we need to intervene ? - No, there is no need.

I have to take care of it now. Go ahead.

- Can we offer you anything ? - No, don't bother.

You have been far too kind to welcome us.

The little girl was lucky To meet you.

- Can we meet her ? I'm so excited. - Giuliana...

Forgive my wife. A few years ago we lost our daughter.

One does not recover easily from something like this, believe me.

Now we feel ready, but we didn't feel we should

To have a child at 40. We would be ridiculous. - Benedetta, are you coming ?

- Blessed ? - Sorry, maybe it's the emotion. - Sure.

- Blessed... - What do you do for a living ?

Trader. A small business, but... dignified.

Come on. Here it is.

- This is Benedetta. Say hello to the gentlemen. - Many greetings.

Can I have the mint you promised me ?

- What do you say ? - You said that if I behaved well, you would give it to me

Or else I'll scream.

Liar ! Liar !

Perhaps it was not the right time.

It's normal for him to throw a tantrum, he comes from a difficult situation.

- No, leave me ! - Maybe it's better If we come back at another time.

- What do you say? - Leave me !

[A DOOR SLAMS]

Are you happy, eh ?

They are gone, are you happy ?

This is not a game. I took a morning's leave

And your brother John did not go to school. They were decent people

Who did not deserve your whims ! - John is not my brother.

Mhm... Thank you, nice gratitude And nice figure of shit

That you made us do. - Raffae... - When it takes, it takes. I'm going to go.

[A DOOR SLAMS]

[SINGING]

- Are you the commissioner ? - Yes.

Raphael told me to trust you, however, let's make it quick.

- We don't have too much time. - Sure.

> Rosa, what are you doing ?

Drop it !

Since I've been working here, I've I have never seen anything like this.

This is not a hospital like any other

Where if a stranger comes along, however you have to save her life.

No one enters here unless they are registered.

Instead of your friend nothing, not even a line.

- Then those two forbade me to ask her questions. - Who ?

Those who accompanied her. Black shirts.

They asked about Dr. Vergona.

He is not the primary, but sooner or later he will become one.

The doctor prescribed her a very powerful sedative

And every day he comes to check on it.

Make it quick, I have to give her the sedative before the doctor comes.

[YELLS] Don't worry, it's not her.

- She opens her mouth only as soon as she wakes up. - What does she say ?

Nothing, doc.

She sings-but she has an angel's voice.

[SINGS A MELODY]

I will let you know when the doctor arrives.

Livia.

Livia.

How do you feel ?

I have a little bit of a... headache right now.

Do you know where you are ? Do you remember anything about the last few days ?

Yes.

I remember that you got married And that you are expecting a child.

I also had a son, you know ?

I know.

Listen, I have little time and I need some information.

Saturday night you were at the reception Previti's.

- Do you remember going back home ? Do you remember how you got back there? - No.

No, I don't remember.

- There was the ticket, though. - Yes. - The note.

The butler brought you the note. What did it say ?

Was it Falco's ?

It said... that something serious had happened.

I had to do something, yes...

Doing something...

Manfred... Manfred was there.

I had to send him away because he was in danger and I had to ...

- I sent him away. - Yes. - However. I couldn't tell him about the note.

- Why couldn't you ? - Hawk.

He uses me to... To control Manfred

However, he knows that I am fond of him and warned me of the danger.

What happened next ?

I don't know, I went away. I went... I went away.

There was no Arturo, though, my driver wasn't there.

Falco offered to to accompany me home.

- But we are not at home here. - No.

Commissa', you have to leave.

- If they find you here, it is worse even for the lady. - Worse...

- Worse for what ? - Livia, listen. - Yes.

You are in a mental hospital.

They keep you here because they think you have committed a crime.

- A crime ? I don't... - They think that you killed Manfred.

-But Manfred was at the reception. -Yes, they forced you to send him away.

They drugged you, brought you home, put you to bed with a gun

And Manfred's dead body. You were set up, Falco did it.

The doctor is coming, I heard his voice.

Ma'am, excuse me. It is necessary.

Listen well. These pills they give you are sleeping pills.

Always spit them out when you get them.

Pretend to be asleep, but stay awake. I'll get you out of here.

I promise.

Segregated there waiting to be taken to prison

as soon as they make public the news of Manfred's death.

Why are they doing this ?

I don't know, I don't understand Who they are waiting for.

They set up this sham and at the moment they are keeping it to themselves.

As long as they keep it there, we have a chance to get it out.

Now what do we do ?

[KNOCK ON DOOR] > Permit ?

- Girls', are you there ? - You're welcome, brigadie', what a surprise !

- Come in, I am giving a drink to the creature. - What creature ?

Do you have flowers or plants ?

[STARNUTO]

Now I have finished watering it. Have you seen how beautiful it is ?

It grew under a step. Everyone stepped on it

And I saved it. - This is weed, throw it away. - What weed ?

Those who grow on the street are not weeds.

- Look at me. - Eh...

-Maybe you have the "allegory." -What do I have? -You are "allegorical."

What allegorical ? It's called "allergy." Put this down.

That's fine, but only because I don't want to have you on my conscience.

There you go, we got it out of the way.

Go ahead, tell me everything you you want to know. Did someone die ?

- I don't find that to be the case. - This fact is not like the others.

What you come to know has value If you go and testify.

- You make it easy. - It is not easy, but there is a great injustice involved.

And the life of an innocent person. I need to know the suspicious movements

that happened in the night between Saturday and Sunday

In front of the Previti mansion and the home of the widow Vezzi.

The widow Vezzi ?

- Then she is the one they took to the asylum. - How do you know ?

I had to do... Never mind.

A friend of mine goes to service to the guards at the Bianchi...

- I don't want to know. - While he was there... - Yes.

He heard a beautiful song And asked...

"How come there is a singer here ?" And she was told, "She's a patient."

I am dumb. Instead of asking you for information

I make the rounds all over Naples. - You have to come more often. - Don't...

Girls', stick to what I told you, in fact do one thing.

Ask about people who come from Rome. There is one who has...

a scar on his face And he calls himself Captain Rossi.

One more thing, Bambine'. Be very careful

Because sticking one's nose in this situation is dangerous.

- What joy you give me when you worry about me. - Hush...

- Cesano... - Huh ? - Where do you run, what are you doing? - Nothing, brigadie'.

There was an arrest, and De Blasi asked for help on generalities.

When does he ever do his homework alone ! What arrest is it ?

A gang demanding extortion. They are thugs

coming from the farm of the Campiglione, remember ? Sorry.

Camillo...

[THUNDER]

Commissioner ?

Dr. Pivani.

-I thank you, but this is my house. I don't need a ride. -Go upstairs.

I know it is late and you want to go back to your wife, but it is important.

- Is it necessary to move ? - I have waited under the house too long.

- Let's cut to the chase. - All right.

Manfred von Brauchitsch murder.

There must be a flaw in your information apparatus.

Don't you know that I was exonerated from that case by Captain Rossi ?

Of course, but you continued secretly investigating.

So I'm under arrest. I'm about to disappear into thin air.

Do you think that if I had wanted to take you out, I would have come alone ?

What do you want ? Do you want to tell me that I have to stop, mind my own business ?

If so, it is time wasted. I will go forward because Livia is innocent.

You have guts, I always thought so, but you are out of the way.

Captain Rossi is from Rome and is not in my employ.

I am glad That you do not want to stop, on the contrary.

There is a power feud in Germany.

And the winner will almost certainly be Hitler. - What does this have to do with the case ?

Do you see ? In our environment, especially in Rome

there are those who would do anything in order to ingratiate themselves with Hitler

how to bring him the head of one of his opponent, Manfred von Brauchitsch

Along with its perfect culprit, Livia Lucani.

Then they are waiting for this. Why are you telling me all this ?

Then why do you want to turn against Rome if you have cooperated so far ?

- I did not cooperate. - Some of your people did.

Has anyone of your who went over your head, is it so ?

For you it is never a question of Of justice, but always of power.

Order, Ricciardi. It's just a matter of order.

- The betrayer cannot get away with it. - The traitor's name is Falco.

Now you will take your usual measures, I guess.

You bring me the evidence Of his guilt

And I will use them against him.

- Brigadier... - Doctor, excuse me. Am I disturbing you ? - No, no. Come in.

Ah... Sit down.

- Well ? Have you talked to Livia? How is she? - Yes, we talked to her.

- We hope to get it out soon from there. - Good.

But I didn't come for that. I wanted to warn you that...

- Camillo was arrested. - How ? Yesterday everything had gone well.

No, it's not because of the thing yesterday.

He took part in an ugly affair with his Campiglione band.

One of them fought back, colleagues clubbed them

and took them to police headquarters. He is now in a cell

However, he doesn't speak, he doesn't say a word.

- Maybe he talks to you or listens to you. - What should I tell him ?

- That I would deck him me too ? - I've been thinking about it, too

However, looking closely, I thought one thing.

That poor boy since he was born, he has only taken a beating.

The only person who could care for him with love....

was his mother

And she died because of him.

He ... will never forgive himself.

Everyone always called him an underachiever, a weed.

Then again, doctor, we too.

And he convinced himself that ... he is a no-good

Who is a weed.

Sorry to bring work home

But this time every minute can be decisive.

- What is this all about ? - I am making a list of possible witnesses.

Also the hawker, the fruit vendor.

He could tell us who sent him to tell the story

Of the maid's sick mother to drive her away. - Baron' ?

- I made you the infusion. - Thank you. - Good night, Nelide. - Good night.

If Maione will understand where that sand came from

we will have the scene of the crime.

[A DOOR SLAMS]

- Hi, Luci'. - Hi.

- Do the boys sleep ? - Yes.

- Giovanni all right ? - Giovanni was very late.

I was going to call the police, then I remembered that you are the police

And you sent him to risk his life. - Even ?

Do you think if it was dangerous, I would have sent him there ?

It was perfect. A boy who misses school goes to the beach.

Did you understand why Benedetta did that pantomime ?

- To get the blood to my brain. - No. Raphael...

He doesn't want to leave. He doesn't understand why he has to find

a new family If she has already found a family.

- He said that John was not his brother. - He was afraid of losing him.

Those people would have made her happy.

- Dad. - Have you found him? - I report.

-I'll do it for you next time you're skipping school. -Did you find it ?

- Yes, I went from Portici all the way Bacoli and found it. - Let's see.

Yes, that's her. Bravo.

Bravo, bravo, bravo...

But this was something exceptional. It will not happen again.

Understood ?

The next time you do this, it will be... in uniform.

In uniform it can be done.

After studying, is that clear ?

Whatever, now -- go to sleep. That's right, go.

- Whatever, I'm going to go change. This, I'm going to take this. - Take it.

- Good morning. - Was the creature born ?

-If she was born, would I stay here ? -You have said, "Let's talk after she was born."

- "In one night not a mushroom grows." - "And patience is of the friars."

- I don't see friars. - I see an orchardist who talks a lot

And he claims to be the most famous in Naples. - I am the king.

- Demonstrate it. - How ?

- You have to do me a favor. - Yes. - You need to find a walker

who on Saturday night went to the home of Mrs. Lucani Livia

And brought an embassy to his maid.

- Can you do that or are you only good at talking ? - I'll bring it to you today.

- "We talk when we come back from the mill." - Don't worry.

- Thank you. - You are welcome.

I have oranges !

You are welcome, doctor.

What have you come to do ?

I have only wasted time with you And you with me.

Leave me alone.

Cami', I came because everyone makes mistakes

and are entitled to a second opportunity. So what do we do ?

Will you give me that chance ?

- Me to you ? - You to me, yes.

I was wrong with you because I treated you like a wretch.

I thought you couldn't do it, just me

That I say we would all be equal If we had the same chances.

I checked. You were not in charge of the gang, so you will get little

And if you do well in jail, you get out early and when you get out

I'll be at the door waiting for you.

Huh ? Then what are you doing, are you giving me that chance ?

Do it for your mother.

He has done everything to make you have a better life than his.

- When I go out, you have forgotten even what I look like. - Who ?

Who, me? Do you want to bet? Let's bet, come on.

Bet accepted

However, if you lose and find me waiting for you, poor you.

I put you under, I also make you study, mhm ?

Bruno...

If I really have to study, let me study nursing.

Not if you have to, though-if you want to.

Come on, Cami.

-Good morning. -Good morning. Commissa, we have to go to a place.

- What place? - Where they killed the German.

- Did you find the sand ? - Yes.

(in German)

They killed him here.

I mean, is it possible that they killed him here.

The place is isolated especially at night.

- It is the ideal place for an execution. - Indeed.

The sand is the same, but it cannot be used as evidence.

In these parts lives that fisherman we questioned some time ago ?

- Who, Boccia ? - Yes, didn't he live here? - Yes.

If Manfred was killed here

some of them may have heard or seen something.

Commissa', it's ... like winning a lottery jackpot.

- We can try, it doesn't cost anything. - Yes, let's try.

Commissa', I don't know how to help you. I'm sorry.

You really didn't see anything ? Even just suspicious movements.

Already knowing this would help us.

We have to stop them. You know well what they are capable of.

And we do.

Now we have come back to life after we only suffered from those people.

So I wish you with all my heart to be able to stop them...

But we cannot help you.

- I see. - Eat, guaglio'. Eat up, angels. - Goodbye.

- Goodbye. - Goodbye.

Eat, don't worry.

- What happened ? Well ? - The engine is fine. - Hurry up.

- Whatever, I check the sump of the oil. - I got it.

- Good thing it does right away. - I need the car.

- Brigadie', a lady asked about you. - Who is it ? - She is there.

What are you doing here ? Go away, right now.

You are the famous commissioner.

- The brigadier is always talking about you. - That's not true, don't listen to him.

Ricciardi...

We have a guest and you don't introduce her to me ?

- Of course, Your Excellency. May I present to you Ms. - Esposito.

- Antonia Esposito. - Antonia ?

Deputy Superintendent Garzo, Angelo Garzo.

Ricciardi, I have never understood for what reason you enjoy the friendship

Of so many beautiful women. - Investigation, excellence.

The lady may know things very important, indeed we go.

- Where are you going ? - Where are we going...

I was wrong in the office.

Brigadier, put the lady at ease.

- Make her sit properly. - Sure.

- Let's go... - Gracefully, Maione. Gracefully.

At your disposal.

Goodbye.

(sotto voce) Walk, move.

- Remember good manners to subordinates. - Indeed.

By the way, Ricciardi, what is this investigation about ?

I have not read the information.

Robbery. Attempted robbery.

We are changing our approach.

Investigating to prevent so as to make our city safer.

I note with pleasure that quasi fatherhood makes you wiser.

Bravo, Ricciardi. Keep up the good work.

Sorry, I didn't know where to take it.

You have to be thankful that Garzo doesn't understand anything about females.

If you left me time, I would make him understand something.

That arrests you, do you understand ?

Yes, I didn't realize that you were concerned about me.

What do you understand! If they arrest you, they will fire me.

Whatever, now tell me that you came To tell me something important

otherwise I will arrest you, Bambine' or I have to call you Antonia Esposito.

That's my name, brigadie'

I mean, almost.

Should I have told him my stage name ?

- Whatever, it speaks. - There's a friend of mine, Odette, who works at the turret.

You are an expert on these things, however, maybe in front of the commissioner

you are ashamed. -But what expert ? -Everything you say to the brigadier.

you can tell me. - Exactly. - Exactly.

Odette whose name is actually Nunziatina

however, it is not an appropriate name for a brothel or not ? - Effectively.

- You see, he is experienced. - Girls'...

Odette had a regular customer who had become attached to her.

-He went every day. -What does that have to do with what I asked you ?

This customer left, he went back to where he came from...

from Rome. He is one with a scar on his face.

Ah... Whatever, a Roman with a scar on his face

is not enough. - It depends. You guys talked to me about Saturday night.

And Saturday night he was with Odette when two of his friends arrived

And they told him that they had taken the German and the lady.

You also asked me About Previti and Vezzi.

Previti's cook told me that on Saturday at the reception

there was Mrs. Vezzi who slapped the German.

- Things connect, don't they ? - What else did Odette say ?

Ah, the two said they were they were taking care of everything the others

Together with a guy named Falco. In my opinion it is a made-up name.

- I have never heard the name Falco. - Listen.

- Would your friend, Odette, be willing to testify ? - Sure.

I told her that you already know the things that she does extra.

All right... that's enough. You did good.

- Very good. - Very, very good indeed.

Tell your friend to keep herself at our disposal.

- I thank you so much. - For you this and more.

Your wife is a lucky woman, very lucky.

- Whatever, now scram and don't set foot in here again. - I'm leaving.

May I offer congratulations to the commissioner ?

- I heard that the family is about to expand. - You have to disappear.

- May Our Lady accompany you. (together) Amen.

- Dr. Modo. - Mrs. Boccia.

Don't tell me you have another gift. The fish was delicious

But you don't have to give me anything. I have cured your son

Because I have sworn to cure the sick people. - I know it is your work

But now that it's my husband's turn to give you a hand, he backs off.

- What are you talking about ? - I know that he did it for us

To protect us. We have already had quite a lot of trouble with those people.

But the commissioner came to talk to us with his heart on his sleeve.

He relied on us, asked us for help

And we can give it to them.

The driver, the doorman, the duchess Previti, Lucia's cousin

Bambinella's friend... - That's right.

[KNOCK ON DOOR]. Come in.

- Commissa', there are people for you. - Good morning. - Nelide.

- Is it about Enrica ? - No, the baroness is fine.

-I accompanied these two people. -Good morning. -Good morning.

-Good morning. -Morning. -Baron, you may not remember me.

- I had the honor of coming at your wedding. - I remember.

- It has been a joy to have you with us. You are Nelide's friend. - Yes.

The young lady honors me of her presence at the market.

He buys fruit from me. He said you were looking for a fruit vendor.

Who brought an embassy to that maid.

- Do you know him ? - I have some influence in the industry, so.

- I found it. - That would be me. - Ah. - Capuozzi Paolo. - Hat.

-Excuse him, he's not from town. -I am from Casoria, but they gave me ten liras.

To say that I am from Cardito. I didn't wanted to do anything wrong, Baron.

No baron, only commissioner.

All right ? So now

calmly, tell us everything thoroughly from the beginning.

- Go. - The other night I was walking toward Town Hall Square with the cart

To sell off the leftover goods. Suddenly a car pulls up.

one comes down and tells me to follow them. I told him that I could not

Because I had to sell the goods. He said to bring the cart

That they would buy everything plus he added ten liras.

- To tell the lie That you were from Cardito. - Heh.

-He said it was a joke. I didn't think twice about it. -Sure.

- What did you do ? - I went in front of the building

And I asked the doorman to tell Clara that mother was sick.

- Then ? - They paid me And they left.

Do you remember anything about these gentlemen ?

I think they were from Rome.

-How can you tell ? -I grew up with my grandmother, may she rest in peace.

- What does it have to do with your grandmother ? - Was she from Rome? - No.

However, he could read and write, he taught me a few things.

And on the license plate of those had Rome 1223 written on it.

This is a very very important. Thank you.

- Thank you very much and thank you. - Thank you.

- Thank you, Nelide. - Goodbye. - Let's get out of your way.

-Thank you, goodbye. -Good day. -Thank you. -Thank you.

- This way, huh? - Yes. Commissa', another witness.

We have reconstructed the movements of the evening and we have evidence

Of Falco's involvement. -Yes, but maybe not enough to save Livia.

Falco could argue that she was the shooter.

What shall we do ? Soon the the news of the murder and it's late.

You're right. I'm going to Pivani's With what we have.

- I will drive you with the car. - No.

Are you sure you don't want to go with the car ? It'll be quicker.

-Then I'm good at it. -I don't question that. doubt it, but it's better if I walk

To be inconspicuous. - Dr. Moda called.

-You have to go to him in the hospital For that thing you know. -Enrica.

-Enrica is in the hospital. -Commissa... -Enrica! Start the car, Maio'. -Yes.

Come on, quick !

Hurry up, Raffae'! Come on!

Turn on !

Come on !

[CLACSON] What's going on ?

- There is an emergency. - Let's go.

- Easy... Ssh... - Bruno.

- Here I am. - You have done everything to go unnoticed.

- Where is he ? - Who? - Enrica. - I didn't call you for Enrica.

You did well to take the test because when the time comes

you must not arrive agitated. -You didn't call about Enrica ? -No.

Why did you call me ?

Commissioner, good morning. This entry is not from you

unless you have something important. - I know everything, Pivani.

Everything Falco has organized with the Rome group.

First he provoked the quarrel between Manfred and Livia to separate them

Then he personally picked her up dismissing her driver

and had the major taken to to a beach that I can point you to

while from Livia's house was made the maid leave.

Of all these steps I have evidence and witnesses, but that is not all.

I have the person who saw Falco shoot the major in the head

On that beach And I can deliver everything to you.

Names, references...

but first you must promise me

that Livia will be let out of the asylum and taken back to her home.

You have my word.

Stop, Falco.

- No! - You infamous man !

No... No !

Go, go !

Ricciardi, have you heard about the von Brauchitsch murder ?

- Brauchitsch ? - Eh, have you heard ?

I have always said that Ms. Lucani was innocent.

- It's really a relief to know that. - You should not have doubted.

In a world ruled by the right side...

justice always triumphs.

- Next week I'm here. - I am bored without you.

What do I do ? [CLACSON]

- Arturo, wait for me here in front. - Arturo.

Sorry about the time, but I just had to talk to you.

I decided to leave once and for all, not to Rome.

For Buenos Aires.

I have friends there; I have sung before.

I try to start over again. So I wanted so much to say goodbye.

Whether you believe it or not... I am so happy for you.

Hi, Ricciardi.

Hi. Shall I accompany you ?

I do it myself.

- Aaa... - Yes, you are right.

Is this okay here ?

Bravo.

- Madam, the bed is ready. - Yes, come. Give me the robe.

Help. Let's get the robe.

Come on, slowly.

Let's raise the thighs. Here we go.

You don't even move. If it was for you, you fancy how you felt the pains.

Instead, now you are really lazy.

- Signo', I'm going to get water. - Nelide -- good thing you're here.

Come on, take the robe. Put it on the chair.

[INDISTINCT SENTENCE].

You are right mama, you are right. You are right.

Floor plan. [LAUGHS]

You're right, a little bit more.

A little more, a little more.

Then it passes.

Aaaa...

Eh.

- Wipe off the sweat. - The midwife has arrived. - Ah...

- Good evening. - Good thing you have arrived !

Baron ! Good thing I found you.

Nelide sends me. The creature.

Thank you !

Love... Hey, love...

They are here.

- What is it? What's going on? - He's unburdening, you know ?

- Please, let's go out. You don't stay when giving birth. - Yes.

- Go. - I got it, I'm going outside.

- Aaaa... - Place them there.

Wait. John, come you and your brother.

Children, your mother and I need to tell you something.

Family is a blessing and we are very proud of you.

We went through some difficult, very difficult

But despite everything you are still capable of giving love.

So much love. You have welcomed Benedetta as a sister.

And now he has to leave, is that right ?

What your father is trying to tell you

Is that Blessed Will be your sister forever.

- We applied for adoption. - Yay !

- Hurray! - Hurray !

[COMPLAINTS]

[GRIDA]

In these moments men are of no use

except to obey some orders in case something urgent is needed.

Eh...

You have to be patient, commissioner. Some more, some less.

This one, you see ? Stephen, the third one.

It kept me waiting the longest.

Don't push. Don't push now, eh ?

Breathe like a puppy. Like this, look.

[ANSIMA]

- Good, like this. - Why doesn't she have to push ?

We have to go to the hospital -- now.

Nelide... Nelide...

Hospital !

Enrica! Enrica, look at me.

- Enrica, give me a hug. Can you manage? - I'll call a public car. - Yes.

- Let's go ! - Call Dr. Modo, move !

I checked everything, then it started bleeding.

The position is wrong, she and the child are in pain.

You did what you had to do. Now let's operate.

- Louis. - Bianca.

Thank you.

- Give me news. - How did you hear? - Susanna.

- I had recommended myself. - Raphael.

Thank you... Thank you both for being here.

There was a complication and we came here in a hurry

However, now we don't know what is going on.

We don't know anything And ... we can't do anything.

- Aaaa... - Breathe, breathe. - Come on, push.

- Come on, together... - Aaaa...

Relax.

- Aaaa... - Push.

- Breathe, breathe. - Stay calm, stay calm.

- Go, push. - Come on.

Aaaa...

That's it, that's it. Come on, last time.

Aaaa...

Good, there you go. There you go. [VAGITO]

He is a beautiful child, indeed she is a beautiful child.

We cut the cord. Slowly. Here we go.

- There is a hemorrhage, we must act right away. - Dear God.

- Prepare the saline solution. Gauze. - Yes.

Come on, I have to dab. The placenta Has torn the blood vessels. Gauze.

Waning moon. I understand now, Aunt Rosa.

Uterus does not contract. Call the anesthesiologist.

Baron'... Hey... Baron'...

Baron'...

- Baron', I'll take care of Marta. - I am preparing the thread.

- Swear. - I swear to you. - Will you call the anesthesiologist ? - I did.

I've already had him called.

I can't do it... I can't make it here.

Enrica, look at me. Enrica, look at me.

Look at me.

Ricciardi...

Enrica? Enrica! Enrica!

- Enrica ! - Commissioner...

Enrica. Enrica...

[SINGING] I'll show you, but not like that.

There was terrible bleeding. I couldn't save her, sorry.

She is female.

No...

No...

Marta ?

My love...

[SINGING]

(Don't forget about us).

(Don't forget about us).

Don't forget about us.

Don't forget about us.

Never.
